Definitely trying this one. I’m always looking for good drumstick recipes. I once made drumsticks soaked in a marinade overnight then BBQ’d them…they were pretty good too. We don’t have a BBQ now so I have to use the oven…so will give this one a go. Thanks for sharing. I know how much work it is to put together a good recipe. Cheers
